In this 41 seconds long film we see four men stand holding a couverture(blanket in french) while a fifth man wearing a hat stands watching. A sixth man is seeing running toward them trying to jump onto it. He is trying this unsuccessfully twice in a row failing to jump high enough onto the blanket. On the third attempt he is able to jump and spin in the air, nearly clearing in the blanket. His fourth attempt is a successful one and he rolls on the blanket and land on his feet at the other side of the blanket. Then he runs for a final attempt but he gets stuck in the blanket even the four men attempts to help him. This is quite amusing but nothing else happens because this film like any other Lumiere Films is a very old film and should be viewed from a historical perspective!
